Hello, When running either skype_2.0.0.72-0medibuntu4 or skype- static_2.0.0.72-0medibuntu4 from the terminal I get the following statements.
ALSA lib pcm.c:2196:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM cards.pcm.hdmi ALSA lib pcm.c:2196:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM cards.pcm.hdmi ALSA lib pcm_bluetooth.c:1619:(bluetooth_init) BT_GETCAPABILITIES failed : Input/output error(5) ALSA lib pcm_bluetooth.c:1619:(bluetooth_init) BT_GETCAPABILITIES failed : Input/output error(5) ALSA lib pcm.c:2196:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM cards.pcm.hdmi ALSA lib pcm.c:2196:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM cards.pcm.hdmi ALSA lib pcm_bluetooth.c:1619:(bluetooth_init) BT_GETCAPABILITIES failed : Input/output error(5) ALSA lib pcm_bluetooth.c:1619:(bluetooth_init) BT_GETCAPABILITIES failed : Input/output error(5) ALSA lib pcm.c:2196:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM cards.pcm.hdmi ALSA lib pcm.c:2196:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM cards.pcm.hdmi ALSA lib pcm_bluetooth.c:1619:(bluetooth_init) BT_GETCAPABILITIES failed : Input/output error(5) ALSA lib pcm_bluetooth.c:1619:(bluetooth_init) BT_GETCAPABILITIES failed : Input/output error(5) The sound doesn't work at all in skype. I cannot make calls. I don't understand what's happening, as I'm not trying to use a bluetooth. Although this has happened to me (without the bluetooth issue) while running skype on hardy heron 8.04, it didn't happen all the time. My real problems with skype began when I installed a fresh copy of Intrepid Ibex (8.10). I tried skype-static-oss 2.0.0.72-0medibuntu4 and the sound works, but my usb microphone doesn't seem to be supported (usb microphone embedded in a logitech quickcam pro for Notebooks). When I got everything to work while running skype on hardy heron 8.04, even then If I used the microphone in conjunction with the video, the mic would screw up the video image. I had to use a separate mic or not use the cam at all! I've checked that I have all the apparent fixes and I have everything up to date, but my problem is not solved! -- biarch alsa-lib path problem with Skype https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/273693 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
